Bullet holes in the pilings are "repaired" with sandpaper, maybe. You don't replace them for that kind of cosmetic damage no matter how much of an "eyesore" they may be not unless they were shot so many times they lost their structural integrity. That would be a lot of shooting from heavier weapons than a handgun. Ditto the decking. Railing and trim boards with bullet holes can be patched and painted if necessary. I doubt if the cost would be $1,000, though unless someone has a brother-in-law repair contract with Gifford Docks .

The cop is being a dumbass in this regard.

Damage costs are always quoted as what it would take to make it like the damage never happened, regardless of whether that's what any sane person would actually bother doing.

LittleSmitty:If you've ever imbibed in Colt 45 malt liquor, you would know that it will indeed give you the sh*ts, as will Schlitz

/never caused me to poop my pants though

I always thought that Schlitz was some story they made up to scare young people. Lo and behold, I was at a grocery store one afternoon and there it was. You know I had to buy a 12-pack. I had to know, man.

Decorum prevents me from describing the noises and product emanating from my ass the following morning.
